The materialists, who are after opulence and material prosperity, may take lessons from the Ramayana
that the policy of exploiting the nature of the Lord without
acknowledging the supremacy of the Supreme Lord is the policy of Ravana.
Ravana was very advanced materially, so much so that he turned his
kingdom,Lanka, into pure gold, or full material wealth. But because he
did not recognize the supremacy of Lord Ramachandra and defied Him by
stealing His wife, Sita, Ravana was killed, and all his opulence and
power were destroyed.
How can one truly understand the
greatness of the Supreme Lord, we don’t have to look further than the
Bhagavad gita, where Lord Krishna says that "That very ancient science
of relationship with the Supreme is today told by Me to you because you
are My devotee." A devotee is one who accepts the supremacy of the
Supreme Lord, and he is convinced about his eternal relationship with
God.
